My wife showed me this article claiming that most of our DNA is of extra-terrestrial origin. Apparently, aliens engineered us and are even living among us. They look just like us and are learning from us (at least they were until Roddy Piper found some sunglasses and a shotgun and went forth to chew bubblegum and kick a**, and then subsequently ran out of bubblegum).

Jesus himself was one of these aliens, and he was attempting to bring humanity together under one world government, which is necessary to stop global warming and the slave trade or something like that; it gets a little mixed up. The crucifixion was more or less a hoax to allow political zealots to oppress humanity through the idea of a "saviour scenario" (never mind that the New Testament mostly teaches that we are all the equivalent of priests because of that "saviour scenario" and that no one has any real authority over anyone else).

There are some leaps of logic in the article worthy of Ed Wood, Jr., who most certainly must have been the alien ambassador for the arts and who was trying to teach us all the True Cinema, a cinema set apart from all this "good writing" and "logical storyline" business we mere humans have come to believe in.

Great stuff, worthy of, well, something, I'm sure. And since it's from scientists, you know it must be true; scientists know these things.

I believe that it could be possible that we are a hybrid alien species. Mankind advancing dramatically at one stage of evolution. You know the missing link and all. Adam & Eve didn't have to happen on this planet.

Science claims that hydrogen, because there is so much of it, is the building block of the universe, I dispute this, there is plenty more stupidity, and that is the building block of the universe. Frank Zappa

I got the series Space Above and Beyond for Christmas and the big reveal at the end of the series was that the enemy we were fighting had traced their DNA back to Earth. So they were us!

I had watched a lot of that series, but gave up when Coolio appeared on the show. Saw the set in the store the other day and picked it up to give it a look over. Put it back down, though I knew that sooner or later I will have to see the whole series.

Ancient astronauts stopped by and tinkered with our ancestors' DNA. So they were some odd combo of little kids pulling the wings off flies and truckers messing with the road whores.

Jesus an alien who came to warn us away from the very thing that we associate with him in the first place? And I thought the whole loaves and fishes thing was his way of inventing hors d'oeurves and turning water into wine just the best home made wine recipe ever. Now you're telling me in addition to being the ancient version of Rachael Ray, he was trying to save us from religion? So the writers of the Four Gospels were in on the frame-up?

Aliens who look so much like us they could sit next to us at a restaurant and we wouldn't notice the difference. For all the crap they put us through you'd think they could pick up the check every once in a while to make up for it.
